Still a Woman (feat. Mistah Isaac)
Daddy never got the son he wanted
Until he had me
So every breath I took was haunted
By who I was 'post to be
Forgive me, Mama
For the facial features that I didn't choose
That's some unhealed trauma
But I'd trade you half a smile for every bruise
Prince Charming ain't coming
It was all a lie
I'll grow some thicker skin
And I'll save myself this time
I cut my hair short
I wear baggy clothes
Don't you know that
I am still a woman
Still a woman
Tooth and nail, my Grandma fought and prayed
To see me in a dress
I was four feet tall and my first crusade
Was her relentlessness
God rest her soul
If she can see me now I hope she understands
Lo and behold, every Sunday morning
I clap for Grandma's hands
Prince Charming ain't coming
It was all a lie
I grew some thicker skin
To go save myself this time
I cut my hair short
I wear baggy clothes
Don't you know that
I am still a woman
Still a woman
Prince Charming ain't coming
It was all a lie
I never needed him
I have saved myself each time
I cut my hair short
I'm not scared no' more
Can't you see that
I am a woman
I am a woman
Still a woman
I'm a woman
I'm a woman, yeah
Still a woman, yeah
I'm a woman
Until he had me
So every breath I took was haunted
By who I was 'post to be
Forgive me, Mama
For the facial features that I didn't choose
That's some unhealed trauma
But I'd trade you half a smile for every bruise
Prince Charming ain't coming
It was all a lie
I'll grow some thicker skin
And I'll save myself this time
I cut my hair short
I wear baggy clothes
Don't you know that
I am still a woman
Still a woman
Tooth and nail, my Grandma fought and prayed
To see me in a dress
I was four feet tall and my first crusade
Was her relentlessness
God rest her soul
If she can see me now I hope she understands
Lo and behold, every Sunday morning
I clap for Grandma's hands
Prince Charming ain't coming
It was all a lie
I grew some thicker skin
To go save myself this time
I cut my hair short
I wear baggy clothes
Don't you know that
I am still a woman
Still a woman
Prince Charming ain't coming
It was all a lie
I never needed him
I have saved myself each time
I cut my hair short
I'm not scared no' more
Can't you see that
I am a woman
I am a woman
Still a woman
I'm a woman
I'm a woman, yeah
Still a woman, yeah
I'm a woman
